How do we do that?

1- Retreats - By providing a place for church and para-church ministries to come to, to reach their people, whether youth, adults, singles, deacons, pastors, men or women, to train them in the Bible. We provide the facilities, the group provides the program. We are available for this at all times of the year except during our summer camp time.

2- Outreach - We desire to help the Church to grow, to train their people and to offer a place where they can go to do ministry. A)-We are able to reach out to the local community by helping churches come here and do VBS and other outreach in the area. We provide the place to stay, the group works with local ministries in reaching people for Christ. This allows youth and adults to do ministry while being stretched in their Christian walk. B)-We are able to help the American Church to grow through ministry and missions by providing a place where they can come and take Blueberry on as missions outreach. The church can come for a day or a week or more and work on projects around camp, or the church can take Blueberry on as one of its missionaries. We, the staff, are not able to do this ministry alone and seek churches to come alongside and help us with the physical work. We become the USA home missions trip of a church and at the same time, we are able to get some of the jobs done that a small staff can not do alone.

3- Summer Camp - We have a summer camp program where we, as staff are able to reach people for Christ. For all of July, we have staff who come to camp for Counseling, Kitchen and Dining Hall duties, Maintenance, Camper Programming as well as Bible and Missions teaching. We seek staff to fill these positions and we seek campers to come to the program. Our desire for summer camp is as follows:- 1-Lead children to Christ. 2-Help the child (and staff) to be assured of their salvation. 3-Help the child (and staff) to dedicate their lives to the Lord, to be better equipped for ministry and to learn what God would have them do in life.

Being a missions work means that all staff at camp is volunteer. All the cooking, cleaning, maintenance, grounds work, vehicle work and upkeep is done by those who come alongside and help us in this ministry. We, as a small staff, are not able to do this ministry alone. We seek churches and individuals to come alongside and help us with the physical work.

There are many projects that we have to do, or must get done. They include cut, split and stack wood, (in the winter reload fireplace areas) rake and mow lawns, carpentry, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, welding, drafting, tree cutting, construction, road maintenance, painting & staining, window washing, trim work, general maintenance, cleaning, secretarial and computer, kitchen and dining hall duties, grounds work, flower garden tending, programming, snow shoveling as well as summer camp staff needs and whatever else needs to be done.

If you would like further information about these programs or how we can help you, your church or para-church ministry, please contact us for further information.
